Wall And Ceiling Protection; Horizontal Venting Installation; Adjustable Firestop; Vertical Venting Installation - Napoleon BGD40-N Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION

HORIZONTAL VENT SECTIONS: A minimum clearance of 1"
at the bottom and sides and 2" at the top of the vent pipe on
all horizontal runs to combustibles is required. Use fi restop
spacer W010-1778 (supplied).
VERTICAL VENT SECTIONS: A minimum clearance of 1"
all around the vent pipe on all vertical runs to combustibles
is required. Use fi restop spacer W500-0367 (not supplied).
HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION
This application occurs when
ventIng through an exterior wall.
Having determined the air terminal
location, cut and frame a hole in an
exterior wall with a minimum open-
ing as required. See note above.

ADJUSTABLE FIRESTOP

Apply a bead of caulking all around and place the fi restop top,
so that the vent shield covers the top of the vent within the
opening. Place the fi restop bottom against the fi restop top and
secure the two together. Adjust the assembly to ensure it is
tight to the vent. Secure fi restop to wall. This restricts cold air
from being drawn into the room or around the fi replace. Ensure
that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance
to combustibles. Once the vent pipe / liner is installed in its
fi nal position, apply sealant between the pipe / liner and the
fi restop spacer. See fi gures 31a-c.

INSTALLATION
This application occurs when venting through a roof. Instal-
lation kits for various roof pitches are available from your
Napoleon dealer. See Accessories to order the specifi c kit
having to cut them. Use a plumb bob to line up the center of
the openings.
DO NOT FILL THIS SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL.
A vent pipe shield will prevent any materials such as insula-
tion, from fi lling up the
1" air space around
the pipe. Nail head-
ers between the joist
for extra support.
2. Apply a bead of
caulking (not sup-
plied) to the framework or to the Wolf Steel vent pipe shield
plate or equivalent (in the case of a fi nished ceiling), and se-
cure over the opening in the ceiling. A fi restop must be placed
on the bottom of each framed opening in a roof or ceiling that
the venting system passes through. Apply a bead of caulking
all around and place a fi restop spacer over the vent shield
to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around
the fi replace. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the

required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe / liner
is installed in its fi nal position, apply sealant (not supplied)
between the pipe / liner and the fi restop spacer.
3. In the attic, after the pipe / liner has been installed, slide
the vent pipe collar down to cover up
the open end of the shield and tighten.
This will prevent any materials, such
as insulation, from fi lling up the 1" air
space around the pipe.
